Word origin
The word 'nonmilitary' is a combination of 'non-' meaning 'not' and 'military' referring to activities or resources related to the armed forces. It first appeared in the early 20th century during a time of growing awareness of the distinction between military and civilian spheres. As global conflicts evolved, the need for nonmilitary solutions became increasingly recognized, leading to the usage of the term in various contexts.
